Can't believe we choked so bad. I could see it against the Cards, maybe, but the fucking Mets? We let some scrub go all Babe Ruth on us.
LOL a better team with 7 less wins and that we swept during the regular season, surely you deserve to win this series, but everything has gone on your side, specially Bryant and Rizzo getting cold and no, they aren't cold because the Mets pitchers are too good, they have been this way for weeks now and yet we arrived this far
Yep, good luck in the WS White Sox of NY
Cubs haven't choked at all, Mets are playing great baseball at the right time. This isn't 03 where we had the Marlins dead to rights and choked it away. And it isn't 08 where the cubs were far and away better than the opposition. Both these teams were very good after the all star break.Can't believe we choked so bad.

Difference is cubs never had the pitching, and their situational hitting has been garbage all year. Mets have excelled in both. Nothing to be upset about. Cubs were playing with house money here, and the experience, as well as the team's weaknesses being exposed, are going to be invaluable to the players, coaches, & front office moving forward.
And the series isn't over just yet [emoji2]

The Mets have played very well and not at all been douchebags about it. I tip my Wrigley Field commemorative hat.
This may sound sort of meatball-ish, and the numbers may not fully back me up. But this just feels like a very different team without Russell as ss.
While not exactly happy, I don't really feel depressed at all. I expect to chalk this up to experience, strengthen the starting rotation, and see something closer to playoff baseball out of these kids next year. It's not like their window is closing.
Mets added real players to make a play off team. Cubs just added Haren on the cheap.
That is the real reason. The Current Mets are not sustainable.
White Sox looking tough.No one outside of the Cub fan base thinks that.
